I happen to have 2 Swiss Diamond Skillets, a large one and a smaller one, I think one is a 12" and the other is an 8" and I don't think they're worth the money. I don't even use them that often and the cooking surfaces are scratched and slightly, well pitted is the only word I can think of to describe the marks, kind of tiny chip marks. And the larger one is pretty darn heavy compared to my other skillets. The reason they appealed to me when I bought them is because the whole cooking surface is flat as opposed to some other brands where even though it claims to be a 12" skillet the sides slope so much that you don't get the whole 12" cooking surface. I also thought at the time I forked over so much money for them they'd hold up a lot better than less expensive ones but that isn't the case. The best quality ones I have that still look new are the Emeril LaGasse (sp?) ones.

I can remember back when Le Creuset was one of those brands that was hidden deep....Guess they finally decided to give those a shot.......... Nice to look at....but I can not afford to buy them.....NOR can I pick them up with food in them......

Was at Home Goods and saw Le Creuset and wanted to see the price. Could not even pick up the "vessel" when it was empty!!!

One of the best all over creams I've ever tried is called Marine Cream and comes in a black jar.  I'd never seen or heard of it before.....   I got a sample in one of the sample packs I bought!  It hydrates and reduces the fine lines for a long time.  Hydrates well, not sticky and I just fell in love with.  Unfortunately it's $119 (or close)..... I saw it a day or two ago on 3 easy pays and hesitated, decided to buy it this morning and the easy pays were gone!

Needless to say, this cream needs exposure... I think it will be a runaway hit.  Over the 20+ years I've shopped on the Q I've tried them all and THIS cream impressed me the most!

Yes, QVC definitely needs to trot these products out for us.... let us buy it out and on to the the next product!
